The Asterii/Cinquefoils/Nemesis Xenos [Heavy Encryption]
[Highest Level of Encryption and Permissions Requirements]
The presence of the Cinquefoils on Asterion has become an investigation of great importance.
"Asterii" is the terminology used by Anvephone Traquiel and the Wakes cognomen lineage to indicate the Xenos, seemingly a reference to the planet itself. "Nemesis" was the descriptor given by agents of the Archenemy in reference to the Xenos. "Cinquefoil" has been established as the shorthand for referencing these beings, given their notable anatomy of possessing five radially symmetrical appendages, similar to the plant-life bearing a similar name.
